Mega Tubing Trip - Buchanan to Arcadia 5 If you want a full day of floating on the river we have the perfect tubing run for you. The trip typically takes most groups between 4 - 7 hours to complete depending on river levels and how much the group paddles. The trip features several class I & II rapids and good current the majority of the trip but there are 2 or 3 streches where paddling upwards of 1/2 mile will be required. Due to the remoteness of this trip, we only run this for groups of 8 or more where at least 1 person paddles a support canoe (1 canoe for every 10 tubers) that carries a spare tube in the rare case that a tube deflates or someone gets tired. The support canoe also typically carries the food and drinks. This trip makes for a great youth group outing. Minimum age 10 years old. Group should bring at least 1 cell phone to call for pick up at trip end, we will provide water proof box/bags to keep it dry.

STORE ARRIVAL TIMES: Ideal launch time is 10AM, but can do custom times upon request.
